Eiffel Tower district : Food tasting, Invalides and Rodin's gardens
Highlights
-
Meet your guide near Les Invalides in central Paris in the morning to begin your 3-hour walking tour. Focused on Paris’ 7th arrondissement, the walk takes in the UNESCO World Heritage–listed left bank of the Seine River as well as famous monuments and attractions such as the Musée Rodin, the Eiffel Tower and Hôtel des Invalides. Head through the Musée Rodin’s beautiful gardens with your guide and admire ‘The Thinker’ — the famous statue taking pride of place there. Then, marvel at the grand dome of Les Invalides — inside which Napoleon is laid to rest — and listen as your guide highlights the military monuments and museums for which the 7th arrondissement is famous. Wander down quaint side streets and along busy boulevards, and soak up the atmosphere among the busy Parisians shopping, working and going about their daily lives. On route, enjoy three food tastings of traditional French produce such as cheese and pastries, and perhaps take a moment to chat to the vendors you meet. Continue through the Champ de Mars’ open parkland and enjoy panoramic views over the iconic Eiffel Tower. Then, after three hours exploring the hidden highlights of this delightful corner of the French capital, your tour will come to an end near the Champ de Mars.
